Nium Accelerates Business Expansion Across Europe with New HQ in London

Nium, the leader in real-time global payments, announced last Friday (September 22) that it has opened a new European headquarters in London to accelerate business expansion across Europe and affirm its commitment to the UK as a leading fintech hub.

Over the last three years, the company has been sustainably investing in the growth of its business in Europe through M&A, talent acquisition, and product innovation. In 2021, it acquired travel payments company Ixaris and recently hired ex-Payoneer SVP Manuel Sandhofer as General Manager to run and expand regional operations.

According to Nium, the new European headquarters in London will also provide a strategic base for Nium to continue to serve its customers and coordinate its presence across Europe. 

"London is our home away from home," said Prajit Nanu, Founder and CEO at Nium. "Establishing our European headquarters within the Square Mile gives Nium invaluable access to a thriving financial services ecosystem that we want to help support and scale. After experiencing growth across APAC and the US, Europe is now our fastest-growing market. This means we are well positioned to help businesses here unlock opportunities beyond borders, especially those with a focus on emerging markets."

Manuel Sandhofer, SVP & General Manager at Europe, adds: "Nium has been present in the UK for several years now. With the support of local regulators, industry bodies, and our talented team members, we have built a strong foundation of products, customers, and licences. Our new regional headquarters represents our commitment to the UK as the cornerstone of Nium's long-term growth plans in Europe."
